Acoustic Adjustment Device and Acoustic Adjustment Method

1. An audio control device comprising; an input unit that receives various input manipulations; a plurality of generating units that each generate a respective sound having a different sound source, and a control unit that controls respective sound states generated by the plurality of generating units, wherein the input unit selects a first generating unit among the plurality of generating units, and wherein the control unit controls the other generating units such that each of the other generating units generates a respective sound having a sound state which is a sound image location which is different from that of the first generating unit and to which it is automatically moved by the control unit based on the input unit selecting the first generating unit.

2. The audio control device according to claim 1 , wherein the input unit selects, as the first generating unit, a generating unit that most recently generated a sound.

3. The audio control device according to claim 1 , wherein the input unit selects a second generating unit that is different from the first generating unit among the plurality of generating units, after selecting the first generating unit, wherein the control unit controls the first generating unit to generate a sound having a sound state which is different from that of the second generating unit.

4. The audio control device according to claim 3 , wherein the input unit selects a third generating unit that is not selected yet among the plurality of generating units, after selecting the second generating unit, wherein the control unit controls the second generating unit to generate a sound having a sound state which is different from that of the third generating unit.

5. The audio control device according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of generating units includes a second generating unit and a third generating unit, wherein the input unit controls the sound state of the first, the second or the third generating unit that are selected among the plurality of generating units, wherein the control unit controls the first, the second or the third generating unit to generate a sound having a sound state that is controlled by the input unit, while the control unit controls the other generating units to generate a sound having a sound state which is different from that of the first, the second or the third generating unit.

6. The audio control device according to claim 5 , wherein, after each of the plurality of generating units has been selected by the input unit, the control unit controls the plurality of generating units such that their respective sound states are returned to normal states.

7. The audio control device according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of generating units includes a second generating unit and a third generating unit, wherein the control unit, after the input unit selects the first, the second or the third generating unit, or, after adjusting the sound state of the first, the second or the third generating unit by the input unit, in case of not receiving any input manipulation for a predetermined time, controls the plurality of generating units such that their respective sound states are returned to normal states.

8. The audio control device according to claim 1 , wherein a first generating unit sound image location is positioned in an opposite side with respect to each sound image location that is automatically moved by the control unit.

9. The audio control device according to claim 1 , wherein the control unit controls the other generating units such that each generates a respective sound tone which is different from that of the first generating unit.

10. An audio control method which controls respective sound states of a plurality of sounds having different sound sources, the method comprising: a first output step of outputting the plurality of sounds; a selection step of selecting a first sound among the plurality of sounds; and a second output step of outputting the first sound, and outputting the other sounds of the plurality of sounds such that each of the other sounds has a respective sound state which is a sound image location which is different from that of the first sound, wherein outputting the other sounds includes automatically moving the sound image location of each of the other sounds so as to be different from that of the first sound, based on the first sound being selected in the selection step.

11. The audio control method according to claim 10 , wherein the selection step includes selecting a single sound that is outputted last in the first step as the first sound.

12. The audio control method according to claim 10 , wherein the selection step includes selecting a second sound different from the first sound among the plurality of sounds, and the second output step includes outputting the second sound with a different sound state from that of the first sound.

13. The audio control method according to claim 12 , wherein the selection step includes selecting a third sound not selected yet among the plurality of sounds, and the second output step includes outputting the third sound with a different sound state from that of the second sound.

14. The audio control method according to claim 10 , wherein the plurality of sounds includes a second sound and a third sound, the method further comprising: a control step of controlling the sound state of the first, second, or third sound, after the output in the second output step; and a third output step of outputting the first, second, or third sound with the controlled sound state.

15. The audio control method according to claim 14 , further comprising the step of returning the respective sound states of the plurality of sounds to normal after each of the plurality of sounds has been selected.

16. The audio control method according to claim 10 , wherein the plurality of sounds includes a second sound and a third sound, the method further comprising: a count step of counting the elapse of time, after selecting the first, second, or third sound or after controlling the first, second, or third sound and then returning the respective sound states of the plurality of sounds to normal after the elapse of a predetermined time in the count step.

17. The audio control method according to claim 10 , wherein the sound image location of each of the other sounds is opposite to a sound image location of the first sound.

18. The audio control method according to claim 10 , wherein the second output step includes outputting the other sounds of the plurality of sounds such that each of the other sounds has a respective sound tone that is different from that of the first sound.
